ESC OFF usage

When Driving

The ESC OFF mode should only be
used briefly to help free the vehicle if
stuck in snow or mud, by temporarily
stopping operation of the ESC, to
maintain wheel torque.
To turn ESC off while driving, press
the ESC OFF button while driving on
a flat road surface.

• Do not allow wheel(s) of one

axle to spin excessively while
the ESC, ABS, and parking brake
warning lights are displayed.
The repairs would not be cov-
ered by the vehicle warranty.
Reduce vehicle power and do
not spin the wheel(s) excessive-
ly while these lights are dis-
played.

• When operating the vehicle on a

dynamometer, make sure the
ESC is turned off (ESC OFF light
illuminated).

Information

Turning the ESC off does not affect
ABS or standard brake system opera-
tion.

Vehicle Stability Management
(VSM)

The Vehicle Stability Management
(VSM) is a function of the Electronic
Stability Control (ESC) system. It
helps ensure the vehicle stays stable
when accelerating or braking sud-
denly on wet, slippery and rough
roads where traction over the four
tires can suddenly become uneven.

NOTICE

Take the following precautions
when using the Vehicle Stability
Management (VSM):

•

ALWAYS check the speed and
the distance to the vehicle
ahead.The VSM is not a substi-
tute for safe driving practices.

•

Never drive too fast for the
road conditions. The VSM sys-
tem will not prevent acci-
dents. Excessive speed in bad
weather, slippery and uneven
roads can result in severe
accidents.

WARNING

5-36

Driving your vehicle

VSM operation

VSM ON condition

The VSM operates when:
• The Electronic Stability Control

(ESC) is on.

• Vehicle speed is approximately

above 9 mph (15 km/h) on curve
roads.

• Vehicle speed is approximately

above 18 mph (30 km/h) when the
vehicle is braking on rough roads.

When operating

When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may activate the
ESC, you may hear sounds from the
brakes, or feel a corresponding sen-
sation in the brake pedal. This is nor-
mal and it means your VSM is active.

Information

The VSM does not operate when:

• Driving on a banked road such as a

gradient or incline.

• Driving in reverse.

• The ESC OFF indicator light is on.

• The MDPS (Motor power steering)

warning light (

) is on or blinks.

VSM OFF condition

To cancel VSM operation, press the
ESC OFF button. ESC OFF indicator
light (

) will illuminate.

To turn on VSM, press the ESC OFF
button again. The ESC OFF indicator
light will go out.

Driving with wheels and tires with
different sizes may cause the VSM
system to malfunction. Before
replacing tires, make sure all four
tires and wheels are the same
size. Never drive the vehicle with
different sized tires and wheels
installed.

NOTICE

If the ESC indicator light (

) or

MDPS warning light (

) stays

on or blinks, your vehicle may
have a malfunction with the
VSM system. When the warning
light illuminates, have the vehi-
cle checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as
possible.

Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)

The Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)
helps prevent the vehicle from rolling
backwards when starting a vehicle
from a stop on a hill. The system
operates the brakes automatically for
approximately 5 seconds and releas-
es the brake after 5 seconds or when
the accelerator pedal is depressed.

Information

• The HAC does not operate when the

gear is in P (Park) or N (Neutral).

• The HAC activates even when the

ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is
off. However, it does not activate,
when the ESC does not operate nor-
mally.

Good Braking Practices

Wet brakes can be dangerous! The
brakes may get wet if the vehicle is
driven through standing water or if it
is washed. Your vehicle will not stop
as quickly if the brakes are wet. Wet
brakes may cause the vehicle to pull
to one side.

To dry the brakes, apply the brakes
lightly until the braking action returns
to normal. If the braking action does
not return to normal, stop as soon as
it is safe to do so and call an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer for assistance.
DO NOT drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. Even light, but
constant pedal pressure can result in
the brakes overheating, brake wear,
and possibly even brake failure.
If a tire goes flat while you are driv-
ing, apply the brakes gently and
keep the vehicle pointed straight
ahead while you slow down. When
you are moving slowly enough for it
to be safe to do so, pull off the road
and stop in a safe location.
Keep your foot firmly on the brake
pedal when the vehicle is stopped to
prevent the vehicle from rolling for-
ward.

Whenever leaving the vehicle or
parking, always come to a com-
plete stop and continue to
depress the brake pedal. Shift
to the P (Park) position, then
apply the parking brake, and
place the POWER button in the
OFF position.
Vehicles parked with the park-
ing brake not applied or not
fully engaged may roll inadver-
tently and may cause injury to
the driver and others. ALWAYS
apply the parking brake before
exiting the vehicle.

WARNING

Always be ready to depress the
accelerator pedal when starting
off on a incline. The HAC acti-
vates only for approximately 5
seconds.

- Driving on a curve
The performance of Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may be
limited when driving on a curved
road.
The front camera or radar sensor
recognition system may not detect
the vehicle, pedestrian or cyclist trav-
eling in front on a curved road.
This may result in no alarm and brak-
ing when necessary.
Always pay attention to road and
driving conditions, and if necessary,
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to main-
tain a safe distance.

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may recognize a vehicle or pedestri-
an or cyclist in the next lane or out-
side the lane when driving on a
curved road.
If this occurs, the function may
unnecessarily alarm the driver and
apply the brake.
Always pay attention to road and
driving conditions, while driving.

Driving your vehicle

- Driving on a slope
The performance of Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may be
decreased while driving upward or
downward on a slope. The front cam-
era or front radar sensor recognition
may not detect the vehicle, pedestrian
or cyclist in front.
This may result in unnecessary alarm
and braking or no alarm and braking
when necessary.
When the function suddenly recog-
nizes the vehicle, pedestrian or cyclist
in front while passing over a slope,
you may experience sharp decelera-
tion.

Always keep your eyes forward while
driving upward or downward on a
slope, and, if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain distance.

- Changing lanes
When a vehicle changes lanes in
front of you, Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist may not immedi-
ately detect the vehicle, especially if
the vehicle changes lanes abruptly.
In this case, you must maintain a
safe braking distance, and if neces-
sary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.

When driving in stop-and-go traffic,
and a stopped vehicle in front of you
merges out of the lane, Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may not
immediately detect the new vehicle
that is now in front of you. In this
case, you must maintain a safe brak-
ing distance, and if necessary,
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to main-
tain a safe distance.

- Detecting the vehicle in front of you
If the vehicle in front of you has cargo
that extends rearward from the cab,
or when the vehicle in front of you
has higher ground clearance, addi-
tional special attention is required.
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not be able to detect the cargo
extending from the vehicle. In these
instances, you must maintain a safe
braking distance from the rearmost
object, and if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain distance.

Detecting pedestrians or
cyclists

The sensor may be limited when:
• The pedestrian or cyclist is not fully

detected by the camera recogni-
tion system, for example, if the
pedestrian is leaning over or is not
fully walking upright

• The pedestrian or cyclist is moving

very quickly or appears abruptly in
the camera detection area

• The pedestrian or cyclist is wear-

ing clothing that easily blends into
the background, making it difficult
to be detected by the camera
recognition system

• The outside lighting is too bright

(for example, when driving in bright
sunlight or in sun glare) or too dark
(for example, when driving on a
dark rural road at night)

• It is difficult to detect and distin-

guish the pedestrian or cyclist from
other objects in the surroundings,
for example, when there is a group
of pedestrians, cyclists or a large
crowd

Lane-Change oncoming func-
tion

The Lane-Change Oncoming func-
tion detects the oncoming vehicle with
a front view camera at the front wind-
shield. And it assists the driver's steer-
ing to help avoiding the collision to
oncoming vehicle and keeping the
vehicle in the lanes, when the vehicle
drives over the centerline.

Warning message and function
control

•

Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist is designed to detect
and monitor the vehicle ahead
or detect a pedestrian or
cyclist (if equipped) in the
roadway through radar sig-
nals and camera recognition.
It is not designed to detect
bicycles,

motorcycles,

smaller wheeled objects such
as luggage bags, shopping
carts, or strollers.

•

Never try to test the operation
of Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist. Doing so
may cause severe injury or
death.

•

If the front bumper, front
glass, radar or camera have
been replaced or repaired, we
recommend that you have
your vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

•

This function is only a supple-
mental system. So, it does not
replace the need for extreme
care and attention of the driver.
The sensing range of oncom-
ing vehicle is limited. Pay atten-
tion to the road conditions at
all times.

•

Always drive cautiously to
prevent accidents from any
unexpected and sudden situa-
tions. The function does not
steer the vehicle completely

Lane Keeping Assist with a camera
at the front windshield, helps detect
lane markers and road edge on the
road, and assists the driver's steer-
ing to help keep the vehicle between
lanes.
When Lane Keeping Assist detects
the vehicle straying from its lane (or
road), it alerts the driver with a visu-
al and audible warning, while apply-
ing a counter-steering torque, trying
to prevent the vehicle from moving
out of its lane (or road).

Lane Keeping Assist is not a sub-
stitute for safe driving practices,
but a convenience function. It is
the responsibility of the driver to
always be aware of the surround-
ing and steer the vehicle.

WARNING

Take the following precautions
when using Lane Keeping
Assist:

•

Do not steer the steering
wheel suddenly when the
steering wheel is being assist-
ed by the function.

•

Lane Keeping Assist helps to
prevent the driver from mov-
ing out of the lane (or road)
unintentionally by assisting
the driver's steering. However,
the driver should not solely
rely on the function but
always pay attention on the
steering wheel to stay in the
lane.

WARNING

•

The operation of Lane
Keeping Assist can be can-
celed or not work properly
according to road condition
and surroundings. Always be
cautious when driving.

•

Do not disassemble Lane
Keeping Assist camera tem-
porarily to tint the window or
attach any types of coatings
and accessories. If you disas-
semble the camera and
assemble it again, we recom-
mend that you take your vehi-
cle to an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer and have the function
checked for calibration.

•

When you replace the wind-
shield glass, Lane Keeping
Assist camera or related parts
of the steering wheel, we rec-
ommend that you take your
vehicle to an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the
function checked for calibra-
tion.

Lane Keeping Assist operation

To activate/deactivate the Lane
Keeping Assist:
With the power button in the ON
position, Lane Keeping Assist turns
on automatically. The indicator in the
cluster display will initially illuminate
white. If you press the Lane Safety
button located on the instrument
panel on the lower left hand side of
the driver, Lane Keeping Assist will
be turned off and the indicator on the
cluster display will go off.

Driving your vehicle

•

The function detects lane
markers (or road edge) and
controls the steering wheel by
a camera, therefore, if the lane
markers (or road edge) are
hard to detect, the function
may not work properly.
Please refer to "Limitations of
Lane Keeping Assist".

•

Do not remove or damage the
related parts of Lane Keeping
Assist.

•

You may not hear a warning
sound of Lane Keeping Assist
because of excessive audio
sound.

•

Do not place objects on the
dashboard that reflects light
such as mirrors, white paper,
etc. The function may mal-
function if the sunlight is
reflected.

•

Always have your hands on
the steering wheel while Lane
Keeping Assist is activated. If
you continue to drive with
your hands off the steering
wheel after the "Keep hands
on steering wheel" warning
message appears, the func-
tion will stop control the
steering wheel.

•

The steering wheel is not con-
tinuously controlled so if the
vehicle speed is at a higher
rate when leaving a lane (or
road edge) the vehicle may
not be controlled by the func-
tion. The driver must always
follow the speed limit when
using the function.

•

If you attach objects to the
steering wheel, the function
may not assist steering or the
hands off alarm may not work
properly.

•

When you tow a trailer, make
sure that you turn off Lane
Keeping Assist.
